Between 2013 and 2015 £2.5 million was spent preserving the church, which has one of the finest medieval paintings in North Wales.

Like many Denbighshire churches it is double-naved and has a fine pair of the characteristically local late-medieval hammerbeam roofs. The fluted timber pillars between the naves are more unusual, and much later, dating from a restoration in 1768.
